Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

SpainThe worst part is the kitchen. I was there for two weeks and couldn't bring myself to cook there because of the constant bad smell. They don't open the windows, using the excuse that pigeons get in, and as far as I can remember, there's no extractor fan. If there are, they're either off or don't work properly, so it's as if they don't exist. They don't take out the garbage bags at night, so if you have to go get water late at night, be prepared to hold your breath. During the two weeks I was there, I decided to eat outside because, although it's very long, it's also narrow, so it's easy to bump into each other. The kitchen's cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired.
Location: a 5 minutes walk to the train station and bus station Staff: always helpful, Recreational area: has a pool, plenty of tables and chairs to sit down and it's big and you can smoke, people playing music and having a drink

Good location if you like being in the centre, but also means it’s noisy. Friendly staff, wifi actually works! Stayed twice; one room was great, the other time not soo good. Bathrooms are fairly clean

AustraliaBathroom was out of order on the floor I was staying on, the bathroom that I did use I found that it took about 5 minutes of very slight adjustments to get the water to a comfortable showering temperature as it would either go very hot or completely cold suddenly. Floors are very creaky I felt bad moving around in my own room as there is basically no soundproofing, you can hear a conversation that two people are having clear as day a few doors down. Shoes scattered everywhere outside people's rooms, how they don't get stolen is a mystery to me.
Good location lots of nice restaurants nearby. Affordable and good value. Friendly helpful staff.

AustraliaThe kitchen is dirty and the fridges are full. The common toilets are not regularly cleaned. The noise at night from other guests is out control, even at 3 am I had to go and tell the reception about it but they never stoped, it's like sleeping in a bar with no security guards. I had a private room and was still was asked to bring the sheets down !
The location. Luggage storage. The night staff are friendly ( males) . The seating area near the big window . The movie room. The high ceiling. Good for the Price. Lots of paper towels in the bathroom and the kitchen.

CanadaThe kitchen was terrible. There were hardly any plates and very little cutlery. I had to search the draining boards where things were drip drying to finds what I needed. Also, the floor was sticky. There were lots of fridges, which was good since the hostel is very big and the fridges were pretty full.
The location was excellent. Also, my room was good.

Location was fabulous and the people that were staying there were nice. The outdoor area was a good communal area with a pool table.
